Keep Your Accounts Safe

In today's environment, we must do all we can to keep our accounts safe. Keep in mind, unless you have initiated the
contact, RBFCU will never request your sensitive personal, financial or account information by phone, email or text
message. Additionally, you should never reply to, or click on, links within e-mails or text messages from unknown or
suspicious senders, especially those requesting your personal account information. If you are skeptical of an e-mail
or text message's intent, delete the message.

Be aware of scams such as phishing, a tactic used to steal valuable information such as credit card and Social
Security numbers, user IDs, and passwords. In phishing, also known as "brand spoofing," an official-looking e-mail is
sent to potential victims, in which the sender pretends to be from their ISP, credit union, bank or retail
establishment. E-mails can be sent to many people and scammers expect some percentage of recipients will actually
have an account with the real organization and respond, thus compromising their personal information.

Please visit our Security Section, and the accompanying Security
pages for previous security alerts, information on identity theft and security tips. If you receive a suspicious
message, please forward it to memberservices@rbfcu.org.
